The next part of the work in progress

Certificate 18 - Part 2

The-Noose-Tightens

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

Was the sound of the car as it punched through the air

When they’re raiding your house hold your head in despair

No need to stop the car it’s best to disappear

Accelerate smooth so they don’t over hear

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

They know he’s the whistleblower how could that be?

Must have left a clue overdosed on caffeine

Now they’re on the case staking out his place

Using infra-red, waiting to erase

Men in dark suits, white shirts, black boots

Secure ear piece interconnected like borg

Resistance is futile from these aug-

Mented agents infinite patience

They got bugs! - crawling all up in his food

Infesting his home reporting on the dude

Worming through his biz like he was on show

I’m talking nanobots, best tech knowledge this

Switching his life into annus horribilis

Made him most wanted in the…metropolis

Meticulously misinformed the populous

Got to get away, not make it obvious

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

Was the sound of the car as it punched through the air

When they’re raiding your house hold your head in despair

No need to stop the car it’s best to disappear

Accelerate smooth so they don’t over hear

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

License plate’s they’re clockin’, agent Smiths are locked in

No telephones to teleport out

G-P-S…reconfigures route

Like Stefani…going solo No Doubt

Whistleblower switches…to Bullitt mode

Brake…accelerate like Steve McQueen

Horrors yet to come don’t mistake for Stephen King

Need some supernatural drive…like Christine

It’s a dark night but there ain’t no joker

Speeding down lanes feeling flushed like poker

Pulling out, ducking in, swerving round, panicking

Upgraded from Penn to ‘dead man driving’

Rapid rotation of wheel of fortune

Agents crash car as seen through rear view

They flag down taxi, driver says “where to”

Answer is windscreen, he ends up clear through

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

Was the sound of the car as it punched through the air

When they’re raiding your house hold your head in despair

No need to stop the car it’s best to disappear

Accelerate smooth so they don’t over hear

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

Whistleblower sighs…with relief

Just when…in the night like a thief

Undercover agents shunt him from the right

Left to chance, when steering takes flight

Crumpled and crushed flipped over nine times

Cat’s eyes reflect on last of nine lives

DB9 eventually grinds to a halt

Aston Martin’s been crushed to a pulp

Whistleblower dragged like piece of road kill

To blacked out truck transporting its fill

Of dissident citizens needing to get tweaked

Daring to rebel not behaving like sheep

Roadside incident deconstructed quick

Unlike BP the operation’s slick

Whistleblower gassed up in the back of the truck

Strapped in with truth serum ready to pluck…

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

Was the sound of the car as it punched through the air

When they’re raiding your house hold your head in despair

No need to stop the car it’s best to disappear

Accelerate smooth so they don’t over hear

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

Certificate 18 part 1

So feed back with your response to this piece by replying below

Scene 1 (of ...) Spies are everywhere

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

Was the sound of the fan as it sliced through the silence

Gettin’ caught in the act could lead to moment of violence

So many cameras in this war of surveillance

Just like Zanussi the appliance of science

Its 9 pm, he’s on the top floor office block

Executive level, where signs say confidential

Shouldn’t be there, but company’s too influential

Must be exposed, stop people being reverential

First up, check their value via networth

View the surveillance, by jacking to the network

Enter the code, clouded breath denotes cold

Exposure in files will allow the whistle blow

Tap tap keyboard, better copy data quick

U-S-B connection, too slow never slick

Should have used wireless, too tense didn’t think

Need to speed upload, before they trace the data link

Feeling kinda tired, could do with a coffee drink

Settle for some tablets, stimulate whilst on the brink

Ding-ding, that’s the sound of the elevator

Tenth - eleventh – someone’s gonna meet their maker…

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

Was the sound of the fan as it sliced through the silence

Gettin’ caught in the act could lead to moment of violence

So many cameras in this war of surveillance

Just like Zanussi the appliance of science

Sillouettes and whispers, giggles and smoochies

Drunken C-E-O has caught himself some coochie

Stumbles out the lift, hands spraying everywhere

Cupping, squeezing, plenty of heavy breathing

Frenzy of action detracts from espionage

As second girl appears, trois-a-ménage

Transfer completion, allows data key retrieval

Escape requires, daredevil moves like Knievel

Seventy floors up, crawls onto ledge of window

Most unwanted place, to lose your footing in though

Grabs the edge of ledge, can just about cling on

Star of this trek to boldly go beyond

Spiderman manoeuvres performed along scaffold

Last view of orgy as C-E-O unloads

Clambers onto rooftop in search of escape

Could do with tights 'S' on chest and a cape

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

Was the sound of the fan as it sliced through the silence

Gettin’ caught in the act could lead to moment of violence

So many cameras in this war of surveillance

Just like Zanussi the appliance of science

Running down fire escape trying to elude

Surveillance recording C-E-O being lewd

In the nude – with his brood…

Of chicks snorting charlie for a fix…

They ain’t got a clue these bunch of pricks

Of what’s going on within their midst

Balaclava clad he checks the ticks of the tock

On his wrist as he’s clocks camera clicks

He’s out in the street in the heat of the night

Dashing down alleys wiki-leaks to ignite

We’re not talking cables on spurious hype

More like sleaze on scandalous types

It’s 10pm, he can easily connect

Contacts are in place allow them to inspect

Files and information cross-reference and correct

Before they whistle blow on the president elect…

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

Was the sound of the fan as it sliced through the silence

Gettin’ caught in the act could lead to moment of violence

So many cameras in this war of surveillance

Just like Zanussi the appliance of science

Certificate 18 Invite

Hey peeps

So I'm creating this new concept album "Certificate 18" - it's going to be something different but with that Beyonder flavour, the idea is a series of pieces that will all join together to form scenes in a movie as it were (there's more but that's the basic premise).

I've been working on three of the pieces for a while now, and doing research,
but before I move the idea forward, over the next few weeks I'm posting up the work in progress and inviting YOU...THAT'S RIGHT YOU...to paricipate - with questions about each piece, ideas you might like explored, concepts or scenes you think should be included so with out disclosing too much more get yourself over to my blog www.dcosmicdotcom.blogspot.com/ read the first piece I've posted up "Spies are everywhere" and be part of the new Beyonder concept album.

Just do it!

Beyonder

Beyonder & Sunday Driver

Update:

I met up with Joel today, a lead member of the band Sunday Driver (www.sundaydriver.co.uk), a real alternative sci fi band (that fits very well in the steampunk mould ), I worked with the band a couple years back and they've grown in leaps and bounds. We spoke last year about doing another project, and it looks like we're going to make it happen, looking to develop a themed show around the bands new album, where I'm going to write some new commissioned work for the show (Beyonder meets Suday Driver), so look out for more updates later in the year, there will probably be some footage which of course will feature here and at www.dcosmic.com.

So stay tuned!
